What is the motivation to buy Maine land? One of the biggest kick in the pants to make the dream into a reality is sheer lack of space where folks live now. Eight out of ten people live in a city with just no space. Or very expensive sold by the inch, not the acre for additional breathing room.

Plus Maine land is way way under valued. Have always thought of Nothern Maine land like a sleeping giant. Especially when you study the national land value charts.

To make the most important, largest investment decision most of us ever make in a lifetime that involves real estate property listings.

The Internet means faster, complete, sweetly delivered is what works best.

On whatever device the real estate property buyer is wearing for an extension to tap into the signal. Has access to at the moment within his or her reach. Mobile, tablet, lap or desk top, the stream for the media needs to be hot, fresh. Ready to tap into on the buyer's time. Not the real estate professional's 9 to 5 schedule.

So stocking the shelves with helpful blog posts on a variety of real estate subjects are critical for the property listing buyer to be able to help themselves.

On their unique time frame fits and starts, spaces for pause in life. So if a wide array of property listing inventory is hot and ready to meet the needs of a wide range of real estate buyers.

No no, rather putting on something layered, to be warm during nippy property listing showings.

The real estate earnest money deposit that buyers for a property are asked to ker plop down.

When signing a purchase and sale agreement to buy a listing. Money put down in good faith, earnest funds put up as a sign the real estate buyer intends to really buy. No fingers or toes crossed. This is real serious stuff.

How much is enough, what happens to the real estate deposit if the property listing closes or not?

There are two parties at least involved in a real estate sale.

Waiting, idle while things happen or not in a real estate sale. The security of a sale with a person the seller may have never met is the down payment, real estate deposit.

The real estate earnest money deposit for starters that is designed to give the property owner assurance that the buyer is really putting their money where their mouth is.

That this offer to buy the real estate for sale should be taken seriously. The larger the deposit, the less long the list of contingencies or delays in getting to the actual real estate closing the better.

Pace yourself and consider very carefully moves in private spending and in running a business.

Small business in Maine is what the vibrant and often times struggling communities work hard to preserve.

Because if no local economy, last guy or gal leaving town, please remember to turn off the lights.

It is why so important to provide a service or peddle a product that is worth spending money on.

Not overpriced or only a small segment of the audience can spring for it won't keep you in business long. Because being a neighbor or member of the small Maine community is not a guarantee everyone that lives in the burg is going to trade with you.

The rules of business clearly state there has to be a profit for you that only comes when their is a value for the customer. You can sustain a lull in the action, a downturn in a market for a period, and run pretty close to break even for a spell. But unlike government, it is not about deficit spending for long or you go broke.

Because the small Maine business owner will quickly bleed out with out a cash flow to pay his bills. Cease to exist happens if not. Because more red ink than the color black is flowing in the enterprise.

The home you want, need, think you want to sell, are you ready or not?

To come out from the ranks of rows and rows of houses, the many that are on the MLS listing platform. Like parking lot sharks circling the pools of potential buyers for homes needing whatever you are peddling.

So five tips in getting ready to sell your home starts with asking yourself one of those heart to heart questions.

Looking the guy or gal you brush your teeth in the mirror with every morning "do you really want to sell your home?"

And sometimes not until the property owner is right up against the closing date screaming closer and closer.

And in the final analysis, some soul searching, they chicken out. Wave the white flag and retreat back into the home.

The one where the real estate sign is pulled up. Put on its side. Propped against the back of the garage where no one can see it.

Second, in the check off list of getting ready to sell your home involves shifting gears. Mentally if you were the buyer trolling by. The scan of the outside, what they see step by step as they come in from the curb. Or cruise on right by and don't think anything about the home for sale you need to peddle, unload to move on with your life step by step.

Six things a property seller expects and should receive from their real estate agent or broker.

Because listing a property, there is nothing casual about it. It's the largest investment most people ever make. Selling it is serious stuff. And everything hinges on the real estate listing selling or not. Life is fast, being on hold is not fun and delays are costly.

Don't give me a pie in the sky number of what you think I want to hear as the property owner for a real estate sales price figure. To just "buy", to land the listing and put my life on hold tied up with no hope of selling.

Because eventually we will all figure it out on what went wrong.

Where we missed the boat. The property over priced will not sell. It just helps make other properties realistically priced look like even better deals. Drives the attention to the ones wearing the fair price tags swimming in the listing pool.

When a real estate agent or broker gets the honor and the call to list a property, the wheels of preparation turn slowly.

Start picking up spin speed. It is critical up front to spend the time to intricately know the property listing details. But not just tucked away in back of the memory of the real estate professional.

Put on paper, documented with images, video loops that along with maps, plats and floor plans.

What this place is all about better be crystal clear to makes the information transfer 20|20 nothing fuzzy.

For the real estate beehive assembly of the marketing shake and bake to shine brightly online. So each listing, property is allow to get some fresh air and sunlight.

To hit as many prospective real estate buyers out there in the wild blue yonder. Not just locally but far reaching and always available as a real estate and local information portal for the buyer and seller.

But along with making sure none of the MLS input spaces are empty, and adding detail with the not manditory ones, what about the seller?

Jerry Jeff Walker, if he was a real estate property listing buyer, he might say he looks for places a little on the trashy side.

Low price, big adventure and up for the challenge surprise of what's wrapped up underneath. Late night sessions burning the midnight oil. Tearing into the place.Going all the way. Pulling it apart and then putting it back together.

To see how far it all goes during the exercise involving something not picture perfect. Missing a few pieces of the property listing puzzle. Absent a tooth or two top and bottom in the wide full grin affected by the gin.

Drones in real estate video photography, lots of buzz in the news about the little stealth image gatherers.

The loops and stills of digital photography for real estate drones is a hot topic though. When you think of an agent, broker using a real estate drone in a congested area, not good thoughts fill the head.

Luckily Northern Maine is not a busy "fly the friendly skies" kinda place.

Less people, less planes and the use of a real estate drone aerials for the expansive land in Maine we list and sell works.

Concern about invasion of a drone buzzing overhead and the privacy of a neighbor goes away too.

On a large Maine country acreage, in a township barely earning a dot on the map.

There are no neighbords whose privacy gets compromised or invaded, violated. Just woods surrounds many of the Maine real estate listings. No people to bother, no one to spy on and the flight mission is solely collect the up up and away of the real estate listing from the air.

Drones can show the out of state real estate buyer the back forty acres as the four props whirl and twirl. The sound like a bunch of mufflered angry hummingbirds or some bees ready to swarm.
